FLUFFY RICE
Boil the kettle. Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 225ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes. On completion, drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork.
NO PORKING AROUND
Place a large nonstick pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the sliced Pork fat side down and sear for 3-5 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through. In the final minute, baste the slices with ½ of the rub. Remove from the pan and cover with tinfoil to keep warm.
FRAGRANT VEGGIES
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). When hot, fry the Carrot chunks and ¾ of the diced onions for 5-6 minutes until soft but still crunchy. In the final 2-3 minutes, add the oregano and peas. Add the cooked rice, shredded Spinach, some lemon zest (to taste). Season and mix to combine.
SPICY GRAVY
Combine the Cornflour with 1 tsp of water. Dilute the stock with 100ml of boiling water. Finely dice the remaining onion. Place a small pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the remaining onion and rub, and fry for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the diluted stock and simmer for 4-5 minutes until reduced. Add the cornflour mixture and simmer for 1-2 minutes until thickened. Remove from the heat and season with a squeeze of lemon juice (to taste) and some seasoning.
